Download YouTube Go APK: Save Data and Share Videos without Internet

YouTube has finally made their YouTube Go App available for India. With a small memory of around 8MB, this app is targeted to Sensitive Internet Users, those who can’t enjoy watching hours of YouTube Videos fearing massive data consumption, those having limited internet connection, and those on mobile internet networks.

Google recently released the beta version of the app for Indian users. But, the app is still under development and carries the ‘Unreleased’ Tag on Google Play. Hence it may be unstable for use on individual devices. It may crash or fail too. But still, you can try it out. 🙂

Features of YouTube Go App:

Google created this app aiming to reduce the consumption of internet wherever and whenever possible. But, that does not mean you should compromise on the quality of the videos. I noticed mainly three important features and differences it has with the Official YouTube App.

Download Videos but with Controlled Bandwidth:

With every downloadable video on YouTube, you will see the save button. But, the good thing is you can now check and control your video download quality yourself before starting to download.

You can see the quality information, including the Internet Bandwidth it will consume right before you download it.

This can help you stay safe from accidental data usages.

Share Videos with other Android Devices WITHOUT INTERNET:

We always love to share our favorite videos with our friends and make memories. Till now it was not available on YouTube since it will create an unauthorized distribution of the intellectual property of the video owner.

But since the Save Videos feature was evolved, YouTube allowed the users to keep the video on their device for some time during which they can watch it as many times as they like. But they won’t get to maintain the video forever.

Youtube now took it to the next level by allowing users to share the downloaded video with your friends who can watch it too, for some period.

But the good thing about it is that you can share the videos without needing any internet connection. Yes, it gets shared by Wifi Hotspot of your device. Isn’t that wonderful? 🙂

Receive your favorite YouTube Videos from your Friends:

So, your friend downloaded the movie trailer which you want to see, but have no internet? NO problem. Just open YouTube Go app and using the receive videos feature you can get the video from your friend without needing any bandwidth usage.

Last Words:

With its small yet pleasant user interface and brilliant functionalities, YouTube Go Manages to secure a place on my Android Phone. In fact, a lot of Indians who do not get access to the high-speed internet are going to love this app. It will be a blessing for them.

Well, there is already Reliance Jio trying to push Free Internet harder more and more with their Jio Prime Membership, but still, YouTube Go won’t lose its place as a comfortable and convenient app for millions.
